"He really escaped," Ye Zichen said.
Li Qingshan murmured. The direction in which the blood light escaped was exactly where Little Ann had gone. Thinking about the ugly expressions of Zhou Tong and the others, he couldn't help but smile.
"Don't worry, my Little Ann will help you get rid of this great enemy. I didn't take those Foundation Establishment Pills for nothing."
…
Blood Shadow had passed the heavenly tribulation and reached the Daemon General realm. Naturally, he had two innate abilities. The first was the sound wave that had an extremely wide range of attack.
The second was the Blood Light Divine Escape, which could allow him to instantly fly a thousand miles away. It was a hundred times stronger than Li Qingshan's escape talisman. Even Golden Core cultivators would find it difficult to chase after him.
However, every time he used it, he had to give up all his flesh and blood, causing his vitality to be greatly damaged. Thus, he wouldn't use it unless he was in a life-or-death situation.
As for the ability to control blood and the powerful vitality that wouldn't kill him even if he was smashed into meat paste, it was the same as Strong Stone's Rock of Slaughter. It was an innate talent and not an innate ability.
This was also the reason why daemons with special bloodlines were stronger than ordinary daemons.
The torrential rain poured down on Blood Shadow. His face was pale, as if he didn't even have the strength to use daemon qi to block the rain. He leaned against a tree tiredly, his face full of resentment as he gritted his teeth, thinking of revenge.
Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration. He felt a vigorous blood qi, which was the tonic he needed the most at the moment.
Blood Shadow circled to the other side of the tree. A young girl was sitting there, looking up at a sparrow in the treetop, as if she was hiding from the rain. Hearing the commotion, she lowered her head, and her clear eyes reflected Scarlet Shadow's silhouette. She was expressionless.
"Foundation Establishment cultivator!"
Blood Shadow's heart trembled as he felt the spirit qi on the young girl's body. He was already frightened. Afraid that it was another trap, he wanted to retreat.
The young girl didn't move. Under her jade-like skin, blood flowed, emitting an enchanting fragrance. Blood Shadow had never smelled such an alluring scent.
Thunder rumbled incessantly. The tree propped up a small world, and outside was a curtain of rain.
"You actually dare to be forced into such a close distance by me. You're unlucky. I'll suck your blood to recover some demonic energy. "
Blood Shadow gradually calmed down. With his speed, the distance of a few feet was close to nothing. He opened his pale hand and aimed it at the girl's heart.
The blood in the young girl's body boiled and flowed in the opposite direction. With a pop, it burst out of her body.
Blood Shadow swallowed a large mouthful of blood and immediately felt refreshed. The smell was simply too sweet.
However, what made him feel strange was that the girl didn't struggle or resist. She didn't even show a trace of pain or fear. She just looked at him expressionlessly, making him, a blood demon who had killed countless people, feel like he was about to die. He also felt a strange sense of unease.
Like a frog being targeted by a snake, under the threat of its natural predator, its entire body stiffened, unable to move.
"What are you looking at?!" Blood Shadow was irritated. His hand shot out like lightning toward that pair of bright eyes.
His fingertips were still an inch away from his eyes.
Bloodshadow's body froze.
What, what was going on? Why, why can't I move?
The frog didn't notice, but the fatal poison had already been injected.
The blood that Blood Shadow absorbed and integrated into every part of his body suddenly turned into flames and burned fiercely.
With a boom, the Samādhi Flames of White Bone drilled out of every pore on Blood Shadow's body, igniting him and turning him into a torch.
The flames swayed and cheered as they ignited Blood Shadow's blood, flesh, and bones. However, his soul was frozen, and he could only watch himself burn.
The powerful vitality that he relied on to become famous and proud of had now become the best fuel for the flames.
In an instant, Blood Shadow's eyes showed a deep sense of fear. "You're not human …"
The fear disappeared, and his eyes were burned empty. His words stopped, and his tongue turned into flames.
The blood demon core flew into the distance with a "swoosh".
"You're the one who's not human."
An Ming's eyes turned, and she reached out to grab the blood demon core. The blood demon core trembled violently in her palm.
She clenched her right hand tightly, and the blood demon core could not move at all. Suddenly, it released a dazzling bloody light. He no longer had any hopes of escaping. He wanted to detonate the core and take her down with him.
Her left hand clenched, and a half-transparent soul that was like smoke or mist was forcibly extracted. It vaguely resembled Blood Shadow.
The bloody light dissipated, and the blood demon core lay quietly in her palm.
Three words naturally appeared in her mind — Blood Sea Banner.
A moment later, a bolt of lightning shot over from the distant sky. Zhou Tong had no hope of catching up to Blood Shadow at all. He had merely done his best to catch up.
"Eh?"
From extremely far away, Zhou Tong sensed Little Ann's aura and descended from the sky on the Thunder Slaughter Sword.
"Have you seen Blood Shadow?"
"He's already dead." Little Ann did not hide anything.
"You killed him?" Zhou Tong was pleasantly surprised.
"Yes."
"You predicted that he would escape here?" A strange expression appeared on Zhou Tong's face. If that was the case, didn't Little Ann predict that they would not be able to keep Blood Shadow here?
"Yes."
"Then how did you …" Zhou Tong cut himself off halfway through his sentence. A large group of people had surrounded him, and even allowed Blood Shadow to escape. How could he still have the face to question this little girl?
"Senior Zhou, the secrets of heaven must not be revealed!" Li Qingshan laughed loudly as he walked over from afar. He rubbed Little Ann's head. "Well done!"
At this moment, several streaks of light tore through the air. Liu Changqing's group had caught up as well. After learning the outcome of the matter, they could not help but look at each other. Aside from joy, there was also shock on their faces.
She had reached Foundation Establishment at the age of thirteen or fourteen. She had mobilized her troops, concealed her killing intent, and killed the blood demon with a single move.
They, a group of mid and late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, had become her subordinates. Yet, they could not utter a single word of complaint. Instead, they had to thank her. Which sect did not have disciples who had died at the hands of this blood demon?
This could no longer be described as "genius". Looking at Little Ann, who was snuggling up to Li Qingshan and revealing a rare smile, they all felt speechless. At the same time, they realized how profound and terrifying a fortune-teller was.
What was terrifying was not the fortune-teller herself, but the fate that the fortune-teller controlled.
No one doubted whether Little Ann had the ability to kill Blood Shadow. When Blood Shadow had escaped, everyone could see that he had been heavily injured. Coupled with the terrifying talent that Little Ann had displayed, everyone's suspicions were dispelled.
… …
The building was decorated with lanterns and streamers. It was filled with a celebratory atmosphere that had not been seen in a long time. It was to celebrate the death of the blood demon, as well as to celebrate the achievements of Zhou Tong's group.
And the main character of this banquet was naturally Little Ann.
Begonia activated the mechanism and opened the partition in the middle of the building, so that the qi practitioners could also see the appearance of the "hero" and increase the lively atmosphere.
As Begonia had expected, when Little Ann appeared in front of everyone, the floors above and below instantly fell silent. Both men and women revealed stunned expressions. There were even quite a few male cultivators who fell in love at first sight.
Begonia lightly shook her head. "This is the power of the Aspect of Heavenly Fragrance and Beauty."
While everyone's gazes were attracted by Little Ann, Li Qingshan felt a disdainful gaze directed at him. Turning his head, he saw that it was Ru Xin, who was standing not too far away.
Because Ru Xin was from the school of medicine, her main task was not to slay demons, but to treat injured cultivators and refine medicinal pills. Thus, she had not had the opportunity to meet Li Qingshan in this period of time.
"I didn't expect you to be this kind of person!" Ru Xin transmitted her voice. Her gaze swept back and forth between Li Qingshan and Little Ann. Her expression was full of shame, as if she was embarrassed to have made such a friend.
"Get lost!" Li Qingshan laughed and transmitted his voice fiercely.
Ru Xin felt a buzzing sound in her head. Li Qingshan had the Tiger Demon Roar, so the power of his sound transmission was much more powerful than hers. She frowned and rubbed her forehead.
"I was just joking. Why are you so serious? Could it be that you're angry because I hit the mark? It's not like I'll look down on you. At most, I'll scold you for being worse than a beast. "
"You're worse than a beast, yet you still think highly of me? Oh, I forgot, you're worse than a beast too. You're half human and half fish! "
"Hey, Li Qingshan, you've gone too far! But have you finally admitted that you're worse than a beast? "
"Who admitted it? I've gone too far. What are you going to do about it? "
"Be careful that I don't expose your involvement in the Soaring Dragon Elder's death. You'll be hacked to death by the Sword Collection palace the moment you step out."
"Then I'll kill someone. Oh, I'll kill a fish to silence them."
"A mermaid, not a fish!"
"How about I give you a great gift when you return to the Chain mountains?"
"Don't change the topic. What great gift?"
As the two of them bickered secretly, the celebratory feast officially began.
An was expressionless. She did not drink or eat. She did not respond to any of the praises or admiring gazes. On the other hand, Li Qingshan sat beside her. He downed the wine as soon as it was poured, chatting and laughing at ease.
"Everyone, please be quiet. Now, I represent the Hundred Schools of Thought in awarding this arcane artifact to Little Ann. This was contributed by fellow Ma. It's a supreme treasure passed down through the generations of the school of Yin-yang, "said Liu Changqing.
Liu Zhangqing said. He took out a transparent, emerald green lot that seemed to be made of bamboo and jade, no more than a foot long, and passed it to Xiao An.
"So this is an arcane artifact? It doesn't seem special."
"Isn't this the Bamboo-Jade Lot of school leader Ma that never leaves his side? He's actually willing to take it out. "
As they discussed, Ma Buyi stood up as well. "Little Ann, it's said that the Bamboo-Jade Lot of the Cloud Bookcase was created at the same time as the Cloud Bookcase of the Seven Lots. The two complement each other. There were originally seven lots and a lot container. Although only one is left now that it's in my hands, it's still an arcane artifact. I hope you can use it well. I believe it will definitely shine brilliantly in your hands! "Then he glanced at the Bamboo-Jade Lot of the Cloud Bookcase. His eyes were filled with reluctance.
The Bamboo-Jade Lot of the Cloud Bookcase was not just an arcane artifact. It was also an extremely rare arcane artifact for divination.
No matter how much Ma Buyi admired Little Ann, he would never give it away for nothing. It was Liu Changqing and the others who persuaded him. In the end, they basically used the resources of the Hundred Schools of Thought to buy the Bamboo-Jade Lot of the Cloud Bookcase and reward it to Little Ann.
Of course, the goal was to let Little Ann play a greater role in the war. If it wasn't for the pressure of the war, Ma Buyi would never have sold it.
The divine sense on the Bamboo-Jade Lot of the Cloud Bookcase had been personally washed away by Ma Buyi. It had become an ownerless item. As soon as Little Ann took it, he felt that it was closely related to the spiritual qi in his body.
